    ‘I Didn’t Vote for This’: A Revolt Against DOGE Cuts, Deep in Trump Country

    There are so many variables in monthly illegal border crossings. An obvious one is that the Sonoran desert is not a friendly place to hike in August. I can admit that Biden's efforts at the border, were too little, too late. One could argue that their late efforts were motivated by realizing...

    ‘I Didn’t Vote for This’: A Revolt Against DOGE Cuts, Deep in Trump Country

    This depends on how much you like the Cowboys. I actually have enjoyed some of their games.

    ‘I Didn’t Vote for This’: A Revolt Against DOGE Cuts, Deep in Trump Country

    I'm sorry but it is a self own to say you did not vote for this. The first time, yes, maybe. This time, no his track record pointed in this direction. He was his normal classy self earlier today, posting about Rob Reiner's murder. Now, I can say I did not vote for this, but I got out voted...

    Football General Talk

    This past weekend rattled my cage a bit over my enjoyment of pro football. The athleticism is so elite, but the price they pay to earn their money is very high. Going back to one of my favorite players, Earl Campbell, he has endured so much pain, after his career was over. All of them, outside...

    Round In The Chamber

    I both big game hunt and hunt upland birds. My upland hunting is over pointing dogs. Most of the time, I carry the shotgun open, and shells in the chamber, or closed and no shells in the gun. When the dog goes on point, and I get, say, within a hundred yards or so, the gun is loaded, with the...

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    How would that happen? I retired just as she became the Fed chair. I caught and rode a great ride in the market. I think you are letting your own biases cloud reality. A disaster would be a president whose tariffs are more volatile than the stock market.

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    I must say the last few weeks have been very kind to the position I've long held in Google.

    School Me on Hunting In Grizz Country

    My brother and I generally hunt from early to mid November in grizzly country. We see their sign every year. Even this year, with no snow, we came across a pretty fresh scene of one burying an elk carcass. I would think that this fall with the mild dry weather, there is no reason for them to...

    So much for the vaunted Swarovski warranty.

    You have stated what should be obvious. Vortex has priced their warranty into the purchase price. To do that, their markup over their manufacturing costs is greater than other companies. Vortex is not some unique benevolent company, they decided that offering a lifetime warranty, and pricing it...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    The biggest single thing that would really help health care costs is if somehow Americans could be convinced to exercise and take real care of their body. Collectively, we are in horrible physical condition. A large percentage of middle aged and older adults are insulin resistant, or have type 2...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    I have several Canadian friends from my horseback pointing dog field trial habit. None of them have ever expressed envy concerning our health care system. My farrier injured his back this summer. He told me that he had not been to a doctor. I asked him why, and he told me that his deductible...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    I guess the election was bound to produce snowflakes. The right has been calling Democrats, socialists and communists for as long as I can remember. The sting is minimal, at most. Sanders and Mamdoni identify as democratic socialists. That would be very similar to the Nordic countries. And...

    Are you implying we've turned the corner? 🤣

    What are your highly educated opinions on tech in hunting?

    It's yet another catch 22. We humans always figure out a way to use a tool to our perceived benefit. There is always a way to misuse a tool. It reminds me of what I have long thought. Hunting does not build character, nearly as much as it reveals it.

    What are your highly educated opinions on tech in hunting?

    Generally speaking, I would prefer less technology in hunting, but when has mankind willingly moved backwards with knowledge? Most every tool is a double edged sword. While I can see the danger to hunting from thermal inmaging, I can also see the wounding loss rate on big game, going way down...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    I'm older than most on this board. Education was prioritized by my parents, back in the day. After my father retired from the Air Force, they chose to move to a college town to make getting a college education within reach. The tuition at North Dakota State, when I went, was $145/ quarter. Books...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    I wish not being able to get a firewood permit was the biggest problem, presently. You could beg for a pardon if by chance you got pinched. It works sometimes.

    Extra Stupid Window Stickers

    It stands to reason that he'd spend money on the oversized smoke stack. It amazes me that they advertise how whacked they are.

    Your Close Calls

    This didn't happen to me, and it ended up beyond a close call. Not long after we moved west, so over 40 years ago, this was in the outdoor section of the Billing's Gazette. A hunter, between Cody and the park had killed an elk while hunting solo. While doing that, he cut his femoral artery...
